Hi Stefano and welcome. You need to rotate the declination axis 90 degrees in order to see through the tunnel. It is so you don't hit your head on your telescope.

Deonb, I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish. If you are rotating the ra axis to do a sharpcap polar alignment you have to disengage the clutches and rotate manually. It's best to do this bef

Bob, If you plate solve and sync at the ncp you can confuse the mount. I think it can break the pointing model. Syncs at the ncp routinely give issues. By omitting this solve and sync you should be fi

Bob, Can you clarify where you are platesolving? Is at at the North Celestial Pole? If so that can confuse the mount. After polar alignment try slewing to a target (ie M31). If your alignment is decen

Bill, Are you using ExploreStars? Make sure your time and location are correct.

Alan, Which mount do you have? If you have an iExos 100 its a simple mini-usb cable. The Exos2 requires a serial to usb (FTDI I believe). EQMOD is for Skywatcher mounts. It is not needed for your PMC8

Miko, I wouldn't use the POTH buttons to move the mount. The way they work is not intuitive, Connect your mount (via POTH) to Cartes du Ciel and choose a target to sync the mount. The hand controller

I had similar problems in NINA when it was 6.5RC. I went back to 6.4 and will wait to upgrade.

I guess I would need more information about you setup to determine what might be the problem. One possibility is if you try to connect the mount driver to more than one piece of software you will have

Toddb, Are you using ASCOM 6.5? If so try uninstalling and installing 6.4 SP 1. I had issues with 6.5.

Sean, I can't speak to the tripod specifically since I only have the stock one. I have the Azimuth adjuster and it was a game changer. My experience was similar to yours for PA and I was quite frustra

Edwin, I've been guiding with mine since last fall. I am still in the process of refinement but I have been able to capture 300s subs with fairly round stars. What seems to be the issue? Are you havin

Jerry, That did it! I had the mount track 9 min past the meridian and the flip went perfectly. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks so much Jerry. I'll give this a try.

Jay, Did you ever get this sorted out? I am having similar issues with NINA. Mount flips fine (is pointing in the general vicinity of my target), plate solves, then the mount tries to point the scope

George, My bubble level is not accurate either. I bought one of these to place on the tripod to level it before attaching the mount. It works well. There is also a bubble level in the PS Align Pro App

Robert, You can get a cheap intervalometer if your camera has the suitable port. I have one that cost about $10 and it works well. D800 Z6 If you want to get into full control with a computer, newer N
